Certificate in Fashion Design Level 1

Course details

The Fashion Design Level 1 course is an introductory level course for individuals wanting to explore a career in design or conceive an initial portfolio of work.
 
The course introduces both skill based & creative development modules with key focus on research, design development process and fashion history. Individuals approach fashion with a global perspective and learn various visual communication techniques and understand how to develop inspirations and mood boards and illustrate using various media.
​
Students also get an overview  into the design process from ideation, illustration, draping & pattern making to final collection realization, though some of the modules are taught on the Level 2 course.
​​
Tutored by industry professionals and designers, students engage over taught classes, workshops, studio time, master classes  and industry visits. Classes are structured to be small and individually focsued with limited spaces per course to ensure students are exposed to the right balance of one to one and interactive group study.
 
The FAD skilled tutoring team combines high profile industry lecturers and guest speakers, who are experts in their field, as students are prepared for the professional working environment of the fashion industry. 
 
Outside of the classroom study day, students research and prepare live projects and assignments on an individual and group basis. This allows students more time for practical work and encourages individual learning and development.
